On Wednesday night's finale of DirecTV's "Kingdom," it was revealed that Jonas' character, MMA fighter Nate Kulina, is gay. The 22-year-old former Disney Channel star sees the role as part of a new chapter in his life. He opened up about playing a gay man during an interview with Buzzfeed, saying his religious family was "proud" of him for landing the gig.
“I’ve really been trying to make an effort to talk with my gay fan base and find unique opportunities to set up the next chapter of my life and my career with them in it,” Jonas told Buzzfeed. “The attitude I take in the stories I want to share and my personal life and my view is that I think we’re in a time where there’s a new progression. For all people of all walks of life to accept all people … I’d be thrilled if I’m any part of that.”
